Currently, PPF is widely known and most commonly used by users as a "protective armor" to keep the car's paint shiny and durable, always in a new condition. In addition, PPF can be used to protect both the exterior and interior of the car to always be shiny and clean such as: dashboard surface, armrests and other wooden and plastic surfaces. So what is the effect of PPF Eshield that makes it so trusted by many people.

1. What is PPF?

Applying PPF (Paint Protection Film) to cars is the process of covering a transparent, flexible film layer on the car's paint surface to protect it from external impacts such as scratches, light impacts, UV rays, dirt and corrosive chemicals. This film layer is usually made of thermoplastic polyurethane or urethane, which is elastic and heat-resistant.

2. PPF structure

The structure of the transparent PPF layer consists of 5 layers:

Self-healing layer: Most high-end PPFs have this additional layer, which can self-heal light scratches.

Gloss enhancer: After peeling off the protective film layer, the top coating layer will appear. This material layer has a glossy effect. Thanks to that, the surface of the PPF-coated item becomes shinier.

Thermoplastic polyurethane layer (TPU): This is a heat-resistant plastic layer, flexible properties, widely used in manufacturing industries. The PET layer protects the inner material layers, ensuring the best preservation of the original state of the PPF sheet. The PET protective film will be removed during the PPF application process.

Adhesive: Plays the role of connecting the PPF protective film to the surface to be applied.

Release liner: This layer has the function of ensuring the quality of the adhesive layer. The protective film will be removed by the technician when applying PPF

Usually, PPF has a thickness of about 160 - 190 microns (thicker than 1 human hair) with 6 layers as above, in which the release liner will be removed when applying PPF.

3. Features of PPF Eshield

Although the cost of PPF film may be higher than some other protection methods, applying PPF film to cars is still an important choice, especially in the current traffic conditions in Vietnam. In urban areas with high traffic density, especially during rush hour, the risk of collision is inevitable. Therefore, the features that PPF EShield brings provide superior protection for the car's color and vulnerable areas.

• Anti-scratch: Protects the surface from scratches, stone chips or light impacts.
• Anti-dust: Prevents dirt and dust from environmental impacts.
• Self-healing: or completely covers scratches on the surface.
• Anti-chemical: Prevents chemicals from corroding or adversely affecting the surface.
• Maintains vehicle value: Keeps the car's exterior in good condition, helping to maintain resale value.

In addition, PPF paint protection film also has the ability to block UV rays to help protect the surface for a long time. Most of all, thanks to the UV protection, the car interior minimizes fading, cracking, etc. Thanks to that, the lifespan of items such as screens, dashboards, and PPF film can be extended.
